To be quite honest, I just had the impression they told others the 
truth. They seem to be proud of their daughter, so why hide it? But I 
doubt people believe them.

I've always wondered that. Why can't parents watch their kids play 
Quidditch matches or something? Hmmmmm....that kinda irks me. Oh 
well, gotta move on. :)

They've never been around other witches & wizards. (BTW, we saw them 
at Diagon Alley. IDK about Kings' Cross. Maybe it was in PS/SS, IRDK. 
Oh well, never mind. I'm not sure myself. [rolls her eyes at herself])
They're Muggles who just so happen to have a magical child, the only 
one in their family. This is a strange place with all these shops 
they've never been to or heard of, & they know no one there. Really, 
if I were them, I'd be nervous too.
